Question

Which option will be the best example of the physicochemical properties of drugs?

(a) Solubility, particle size, polymorphism, salt form, pseudopolymorphism, complexation, wettability, pH, Pressure of disintegration

(b) Pressure of disintegration, polymorphism, salt form, pseudopolymorphism, complexation, wettability, pH

(c) Solubility, particle size, polymorphism, salt form

(d) Solubility, particle size, polymorphism, salt form, pseudopolymorphism, complexation, wettability

The question was asked by my school principal while I was bunking the class.

This is a very interesting question from Drugs Absorption in division Absorption of Drugs of Drug Biotechnology

Answer 1

Right option is (d) Solubility, particle size, polymorphism, salt form, pseudopolymorphism, complexation, wettability

To explain: The various Physicochemical properties of the drug that affect drug dissolution and its rate are Solubility, particle size, polymorphism, salt form, pseudopolymorphism, complexation, wettability, etc. Dosage form factors include formulation factors and excipients in the formulation.
